Verdict
Most of these are old foes with ACCELERANDO (NAP) preferred. The latter was beaten only a neck over track and trip last time and third-placed Exceling has since boosted the form by winning at Kempton. Be Glorious finished behind the above pair here while Leap Abroad had the measure of Basholo when second at Kempton last month. Therehegoes is preferred to Benzema of the remainder.
